I highly doubt this but.... We could use a 3rd back haha.

I saw that and wanted to let the 'author' know that the Packers gave Grant a $1.75 million roster bonus just a few weeks ago.

I think that gives him a 'better than average' chance of making the roster.

lol didn't know that. I drafted him for FF thinking he would be a starter haha.

Ryan Grant being cut???

Not likely.

 

[IAMKING]

Just took a 1 mil pay cut for 2011. Will remain a Packer per ESPN

 

[TellerMorrow34]

That's good news for the crazy folks who took him in FF.

I thought he had been running with the starters this preseason. I'm not sure who will be the odd man out...maybe Kuhn...but they like his power.

I will say this; Alex Green has the potential to be a real star. I think he's already better than Grant.
Once again, Green Bay finds a draft steal.

Green looks a lot like Houston's Foster.

We need a 3rd back? Didn't we just spend a 3rd round pick on one. What about Tashard Choice? How about this Tanner guy? Why do we need a 3rd back?

a third back, what the heck have you not seen some of our guys? Id rather give them the chance instead of grant. I like what Tanner and Murray offer right now.

Just saying if it happened (which it didn't) I would rather deal Choice and take Grant...

I'll tell ya, the older I get and the more I follow the NFL the less emphasis I place on a "name" running.

I think for the most part they are a dime-a-dozen.

Now there are exceptions like Barry, Emmitt, Tony.

And I'll even put Felix Jones name in there, because I think his vision and quickness are exceptional.

Guys like Marion Barber should never, ever get a multi-year $45 million contract.

 

[RastaRocket]

Yes I agree, I just think Grant is a very good player.

I want Felix at #1 though.

 

[montgod]

He took a 1 million dollar cut this year and re-did his contract. With the re-do, he would actually count more against the cap then to keep him from what I have heard. This news was premature before learning about the paycut he took.

 

[Sarge]

Grant may not get cut but he is in serious jeopardy of losing his starting job for the Pack. He has had a dreadful pre-season and seems to have lost a step by all accounts.

They aren't cutting Ryan Grant.
